Racing games have become the staple on how some mobile handsets show off some of its gaming and graphical prowess. It's not the first time we've seen a racing game showcased on the Nokia N8, which Rally Masters managed to eloquently shows off previously, but now Asphalt 5 burns up the tracks for the Symbian^3 handset. From the video, the game follows in typical fashion to other games we've seen, but it does fairly look extremely playable on the upcoming smartphone. You'll have your choice of cars to race in various locations around the world and utilizes some pretty decent graphics that play to the strengths of other similar racing titles. Lightning quick reflexes are needed if you intend on getting to the finish line unscathed as the road will be littered with other vehicles that you'll need to watch out for.
